Ingredients

  • 1 lb carrots washed and trimmed
  • ½ tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup fresh herbs such as thyme, dill, or parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel the carrots if desired. Cut larger carrots in half lengthwise and slice all carrots diagonally into 1-inch pieces. Try to make pieces similar in size for even cooking. Avoid cutting them too small, as carrots shrink slightly when roasted.
  • In a bowl, toss the carrot slices with the oil, salt, pepper, and about half of the fresh herbs (2 tablespoons).
  • Spread the carrots on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 15 minutes, then stir and continue roasting for another 10–15 minutes until the carrots are tender and lightly browned.
  • Toss the roasted carrots with the remaining fresh herbs. Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed. Serve warm.
